From the reviews
This is an amazing gym. Very friendly and great coaches. Everybody here is like family and you can't find better training anywhere else.
A couple weeks back I popped in to take the 6 am no gi class. Today I took the 6 am gi class. This place is all the right reasons to train Jiu jitsu! The instructors Chris and Tim do a great job of creating an environment where all are welcome.
I signed my two boys up for bjj class here. They have been going for about a month now and it’s truly been great. They are new to learning this and it can be intimidating. One of the coaches Brian has been amazing. Gets down to their level and teaches them with patience, even when having a big class.
I joined their new fitness center to do personal training and functional fitness classes with Coach Stanfred. Coach Stanfred is highly qualified and as a result he places the wants and needs of his clients above all else. I attended my first Functional Fitness class today and left feeling like a winner!
New to muay thai? Start at Independent MMA & Fitness of Newnan, GA
Independent MMA & Fitness of Newnan, GA comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at Independent MMA & Fitness of Newnan, GA
Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
